About the Item
A striking Japanese Menburyu mask from the 20th century, masterfully carved to depict Fūryū—a malevolent spirit character from traditional Japanese folklore. Expertly crafted from camphor wood and finished with lacquer and paint, this mask features distinctive yak hair accents, enhancing its dramatic presence. The piece is signed by the renowned Saga prefecture mask carver, Kajiwara Ichiryu, confirming its authenticity and artistic merit.
The mask remains in good condition, with only minor surface abrasions consistent with age and use, as visible in the accompanying photographs. These subtle signs of wear contribute to the mask's character and history.
